SkyDrive Pro 2013 deployment

Hi, I need to be able to deploy SkyDrive Pro 2013 to 1000+ corporate devices which are spread over approx. 200 network sites.
The users don't have local admin rights, have limited network access and are running Office 2010. Does anyone know of a way to deploy just SkyDrive Pro now that users potentially don't have internet access?
I've looked at the Click-to-run toolkit, but it doesn't allow you to create a package that just contains SkyDrive Pro:

Please deploy SkyDrive Pro standalone as the reply in my another thread.

On-premise SharePoint 2013 and SkyDrive Pro Sync Issue

Hi all,
I'm not sure if this is the correct forum between SharePoint and SkyDrive as the issue is related to an update on SkyDrive Pro.
premise SharePoint 2013 installation (migrated from 2010) and Office 2013 installed. SharePoint is patched up to the latest CU. Syncing documents from SharePoint worked fine until KB2817495 was installed. The syncing still seems to work but we cannot add
any new libraries, either directly from the browser using the "sync" button or adding the URL to "Sync a new library". I've tested it with an Office 365 account and the libraries add fine so I'm not sure whether it's a SkyDrive or SharePoint
issue. If I uninstall the update then I can successfully sync new libraries from our on-premise installation.
At this point the only solution I can see is to prevent that update from installing via WSUS.
Kind regards,
Rick

Hi
anuxps ,
Yammer already have Single Sign On with Office 365, but SharePoint Server for on-premise does not follow a 90-day release cycle and it won’t yet. Also we are looking for Yammer integration with on-premise
soon. There are improvements coming.

Alternate of Skydrive pro for offline capability in sharepoint 2013.

Hi Everyone,
I have been working on offline solution for sharepoint 2013. The volume of data in sharepoint is huge(like 2 TB). Almost every user will have access to more than 25000 documents. Initially I picked Skydrive Pro client(which comes with office 2013) as a tool
but later got to know the limitations of it.
As this link
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn232145.aspx#section3 says.
The SkyDrive Pro Windows Sync client limits the total number of items that you may synchronize with a document library. The following limits are the synchronization limits of the SkyDrive
Pro Windows Sync client:
You can synchronize up to a maximum of 20,000 items in your SkyDrive Pro document library, which includes folders and files.
You can sync up to a maximum of 5,000 items in other document libraries, which includes folders and files.
In any library, you can download files up to a maximum file size of 2 GB.
Note:
The above limits are not configurable.
Which is a major setback for me. I have tried to found one tool called colligo breifcase for windows http://www.colligo.com/colligo-briefcase-for-windows-feature-matrix/.
Is there any other 3rd party tool or code in codeplex to overcome these limitations?
Thanks in advance.

Enable Sharepoint 2013 SkyDrive Pro Synch for some site

Good day,
How do you enable SkyDrive pro for some libraries, i have only found the switch that enables for all or for none. Can this be configured via Powershell ? and how thanks

Hi Franciske,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to sync multiple SharePoint 2013 libraries with SkyDrive Pro.
For enabling SkyDrive Pro for some SharePoint libraries, you can click ‘SYNC’ at the top of SharePoint web site, then you can select which library is synchronized to SkyDrive Pro. Or you can use SkyDrive Pro directly by right-clicking it and selecting ‘Sync
a new library’, then type the URL of the library that you want to sync.
You only sync one library to SkyDrive Pro at once time. So , for synchronizing multiple libraries, you need to sync multiple times.
More information, please refer to the links:

http://support.sherweb.com/Faqs/Show/how-to-sync-your-sharepoint-2010-document-libraries-with-skydrive-pro
I hope this helps.

Skydrive Pro doesn't remember saved credentials (FBA) and gives "script error" on login

I'm having some trouble with authentication with Skydrive Pro and an on-premises Sharepoint Foundation 2013 deployment.
Sharepoint is configured with forms-based authentication to an AD LDS instance using a 3rd party LDAP provider.
There are two issues:
1) Skydrive Pro doesn't appear to save credentials - After a while (or frequently after a reboot), Skydrive Pro will re-prompt the user for credentials. Checking the "Remember me" box appears to have no effect. The site is in IE's trusted site list
with the "Logon with current user/password" option checked. Are there any other steps I should be taking to make Skydrive Pro permanently save credentials?
I have seen a few pages about changing the "timeout" setting in a web.config file, but I'm not sure which of the many web.config files I would use. The <authentication mode="Forms"> blocks that I found while looking through didn't
have a timeout attribute set at all. I've also read something about setting the SlidingExpiration attribute, but am also unclear whether that's related or where I would go about putting it.
2) Skydrive Pro presents the normal Forms-based log-in page in a new window to the user to enter their credentials. After entering them, the window doesn't close - instead, the window tries to render the home page of the sharepoint site. It only shows the
colored top bar and a button that says "Skip Ribbon Commands." It then presents a pop-up titled "Script Error" from the browser that says:
An error has occurred in the script on this page.
Line: 150
Char: 1
Error: 'document.getElementById(...)' is null or not an object
Code: 0
URL: http://domain.com/_layouts/15/start.aspx
It asks whether to continue running scripts on the page. If the user closes the popup and the browser window, Skydrive Pro appears to work and sync as normal - but the error messages are annoying and scary to the end user.
Line 150 from the referenced start.aspx:
<a href="javascript:;" onclick="document.getElementById('startNavigation').focus();" class="ms-accessible ms-acc-button" accesskey="Y">Skip Ribbon
Commands</a>
Any way to remedy this?
Any help is appreciated.

Hi Aaron,

Standalone Skydrive Pro admin file

Skydrive PRO was not part of my Office 2013 rollout. I need to create an admin file for this one program to deploy to existing Office 2013 and 2007 users. When I run setup /admin it tells me the setup files are not present. This makes
sense since the EXE is standalone and not part of the suite. Any ideas? I don't even need an admin file. I could use some flags to simply use the defaults. I want to make this as silent as possible to the users when the run it manually.
Thanks.

I remember having this issue as well.
If I remember correctly, you can copy the admin file from the Office 2013 install to your standalone SkyDrive install folder, and re-try setup /admin
Hope that helps!

MDT 2013, Deploying Windows 8.1 on Surface and Dell Venue Tablets

I'm having numerous issues with Capturing Images and Deploying to Windows 8.1 Tablets. We are currently using Surface Pro 1, 2, and Dell Venue 11 Pro tablets. I am using a Windows Server 2012 computer with MDT 2013 installed. I can't get the tablets
to:
1-sysprep and capture using MDT 2013
2-Deploy a Task Sequence with a WIM and other applications attached. (I've tried using the simple standard task seq option with no luck)
3-I found another way to get a WIM (using imagex) but when i deploy task sequence it ignores my selection of applications to install outside the WIM and only installs the WIM (WIM 14gb = Win 8.1 Ent, Office 2013 x32, MS Updates)
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Everything is being performed within the LAN and with USB 2.0 thumbdrives for media.

Hi altimav8,
Are you trying to find out how to deploy Surface Pro method? Before capture the Surface pro image please download the latest drivers for the surface and made sure that they
were the only drivers that were going to be deployed. There have a specific MDT deploy support forum more about the MDT deploy related issue you can ask in MDT support forum.

Is there an app for SkyDrive Pro

I would like to access my skydrive Pro account using an app instead of going to my office 365 account and then going to skydrive. I was hoping the app would let me drop files to it.
Is there an app and or instructions on using skydrive Pro on an iPad/iPhone
Thanks!!!

According to Paul Thurrott, a Skydrive Pro app for iPhone/iPad is coming. http://winsupersite.com/office-2013/office-365-skydrive-pro

Here's hoping!

Documents in a shared "SkyDrive Pro" (Sharepoint) folder makes office applications to hang.

Hello,
I asked the following question in the Office365 community but they could not help me any further and they told me to ask the question here. For the original thread look here: http://community.office365.com/en-us/forums/172/p/212129/655853.aspx
Office version: Office Pro 2013 (365 ProPlus)
Windows version: Windows 7 Pro.
We are using a shared folder on "places" in SharePoint Online with some shared documents we edit from different places. But sometimes when using documents on the drive applications like Excel and Word hangs, and then you have to reboot or kill a couple
of "winword.exe" or "excel.exe" to get them to work again.
I don't know why those "shadow processes" are there, but the problem is only when working with documents on the SkyDrive Pro.
Sometimes when you save to Skydrive the applications hangs and you have to kill the process.
The document seams to be saved tough.
Kind Regards,
Noiden

Hi Noiden,
Please exit your Skydrive Pro and try to use the command %SystemDrive%\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office15\Groove.exe /clean /all stated in the KB article below to check if it helps:

Using "Shared with Everyone" on Skydrive Pro

Hi,
Two users in the same organisation using Office 365
Both open Skydrive Pro and place files in their "Shared with Everyone" folder (thats he one that displays the words "Everyone in
companyX can access the documents here")
However in the folder both users can only see their own files.
How do these users see and access each others files?
{Also - I have also tried creating folders under each user and sharing them with the other user. Still each user can only see they're own files and folders.}
(from reading other posts currently the best answer looks like "use Google Drive" - surely there must be a way using Skydrive/Sharepoint?)

Hi,
Here is the link to the “Documents shared with me” feature in SharePoint 2013 environment, it provides a holistic overview of all documents shared with me. Thus the user is automatically informed of shared documents without leaving the current working context.
All documents shared with me are displayed in a result stream.
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/store/documents-shared-with-me-WA103998117.aspx
Please go to http://mycompany/myteam and click the Setting icon > Add an app > Find an app > type the tag WA103998117 and click search > check out the result in the SharePoint Store if needed > select
language on the top right corner > Add it.

SkyDrive Pro and SharePoint 2010

Why SkyDrive Pro can no longer sync SharePoint 2010 libraries? I was using Windows 8 with Office 2013 and SkyDrive Pro had no problems with synchronizing content from SharePoint 2010. Now I installed Windows 8.1 with Office 2013 and it doesn't work anymore.
Is there any way to fix it? My colleagues (with Windows 8 and Office 2013) still can synchronize content from SharePoint 2010.

Note that SkyDrive Pro does not support SharePoint 2010 so any issues you have with it won't be looked at by Microsoft.

MetaData for SkyDrive Pro

Hi
I am trying to Synchronise documents across devices from SharePoint Online using SkyDrive Pro.
Is it possible to Sync libraries that have Custom Columns? In particular lookup columns? I have tried doing it on a Document library with one lookup column and it wouldn't work! Is it possible to go a step further and edit the data in these
columns from SkyDrive Pro?
Thanks
Guy Joseph

Hi GuyJos,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to sync a library from SharePoint 2013 Online using SkyDrive Pro with custom cloumns.
I did a test, and found we could sync the systematical columns , and we could find them by right-clicking Name at the top of all documents, and selecting ‘More…’. However, it seems to be not a way to find the custom columns and edit them. It may be caused
by SkyDrive Pro limitation.
As I am not an expert for SharePoint Online, you can create a new thread in SharePoint Online forum, more experts will assist you with this issue.

Office Pro 2013 installing in wrong language

I started downloading Office Pro 2013 and the screens are in French. I did not continue the download, but I cannot figure out how to re-start it in English.

Hi,
How did you download Office Pro 2013?
If you are downloading Office from MY account page, you will have an option to choose
Language and install options to change the language and choose between the 32-bit and 64-bit version of Office:
https://office.microsoft.com/MyAccount.aspx
If you are downloading Office using Office Deployment Tool (ODT), you can specify Language ID="en-us" in the Click-To-Run Configuration.xml file. For example:
<Configuration>
<Add SourcePath="\\server\share" OfficeClientEdition="32">
   <Product ID="O365ProPlusRetail" >
     <Language ID="en-us" />
   </Product>
</Add>
</Configuration>
